Two days of training for Borough Secretaries- Administrators ended on Thursday afternoon. I attended the last Westmoreland County Association of Boroughs meeting until September Thursday night. I spent a several hours this holiday weekend reading back issues of the magazine Borough News.
The most important thing that is happening in Delmont is tomorrow 10:00 AM at Twin Valley Memorial Park. It is the service where we thank all who serve and especially honor the men and women who paid the ultimate price serving in the armed services to protect our Freedoms. It really use to bother me when I see people disrespect, destroy, or burn our Flag because I always thought about those who gave their life for this Country, and those who put themselves in harm's way defending our way of life. Now, I just feel sorry that those people who engage in such activities are so ignorant that they don't realize they are destroying the symbol of all the people who fought and died to give them the ability to express these views publicly.
From the bottom of my heart a most sincere thanks to all who died that I may live in Freedom today: to the families that had to endure the loss of loved ones: and, those who have suffered great personal, mental, and physical losses in service to our Nation. Thanks to all who serve. God Bless you one and all.
